Nivel 1 Principiante: Fracciones, Decimales, Porcentajes ¡Dios mío!

In this course students will look at early relationships between fractions, decimals and percent. This is a level one class, designed for beginners, where students will look at visual representations of how fractions, decimals and percent are related.  We will spend the first part of our class discussing the everyday uses of fractions, decimals, and percent. The second section of the class we will look at the different ways that fractions, decimals, and percent can be represented.  We will discuss the definition of fractions, decimals and percents as we complete a class discussion. The discussions will include visual representations and students will make connections with previous and new learning.  Students will then complete activities using 100's grids to determine and develop patterns to represent different fractions, decimals, and percents that are equivalent. During the third section of the class we will look at fourths and eighths and how they convert using 100's grids. Students will conclude the class by completing a fraction and percent equivalent chart using 100's grids. As students are completing their charts we will discuss their strategies to find strategies that work for individuals.  Students should have a basic understanding of fractions before completing this course. This is a beginning course for students that need to build an understanding of how fractions, decimals, and percents work together to represent numbers.
